Battery and Brakes The lithium-ion battery is charged when applying the brakes or coasting by the regenerative charging system that converts kinetic energy into electric energy and stores it in the battery. Because of this we don’t address issues such as long-term reliability or total cost of ownership.

According to the Department for Business, the average cost for standard electricity in the UK in 2020 was 17.2p/kWh. That rate would give the LEAF a cost of 17.2 * 24 to drive 100 miles. The solar panels attach to the roof and convert solar light into electrical energy. Or around 4p pe rmile. So what exactly is a kilowatt hour?

An EV like this would need to store 6KWHrs of power in the batteries if we assume the system is 100% efficient. Going back to our formula we will first need to convert our kilowatt value to watts so we have 10,800 * 1000 = 10,800,000 watts needed from the source.

If cost is an important consideration, than charging your EV at home is a no-brainer as it cuts out any profit-hungry middlemen. Also, besides giving you the ability to charge at night when most utility rates are lower, future vehicle-to-grid (V2G) technology may allow you to sell some of your stored energy back to the utilities.
